Genesis Cabrerra pitched four innings and gave up one run in relief of Adam Wainwright for his longest career outing, and Juan Yepez hit a 11th inning game-winning RBI single as the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Chicago Cubs, 5-3 to take three of the five games in the series. Nolan Arenado drove in two runs for the Red Birds and Brendon Donovan drove in an insurance run in the 11th inning and threw out a man at the plate in the 6th inning. The Cards are off today. They travel to Tampa Bay on Tuesday to take on the Rays in a three-game series.

The Houston Astros scored a run in the 8th and added three more in the 9th inning which proved to be the difference as they beat Kansas City, 7-4 Sunday. The Royals have lost 12 of their last 15 games and they will host the Toronto Blue Jays tonight at Kaufmann Stadium.
